I purchased a sears lawn tractor from sears the spring of 2005 and maintained this thing like taking care of a baby since I did not have the money to replace it, last spring with no warning a piece inside the moter broke and blew through the side of the engine, when I called to see how much a relacement engine was I was told it was 1100 dollars, now that seems kinda funny since I paid 1199 for the entire tractor!!
